Evidence-grounded future scripts · plausible, not deterministic · you decide
Rehearse your future before you commit to it.
For students and early-career decisions — like quant recruiting vs. a startup vs. grad school — Forked Futures turns one decision into three evidence-grounded future scripts, drawn from your context plus public knowledge, with the tradeoffs, uncertainty, and one first test laid out.
No forms to begin — just the messy version of your situation, then one guided question at a time. See the Alex demo walks a worked example, or enter a fork you've already framed.
These are evidence-grounded future scripts — plausible trajectories, not deterministic predictions. AI drafts the scripts; you choose what to test.
Branches are evidence-grounded future scripts — plausible, not deterministic predictions. E·F·C·U = evidence · fit · constraint-risk · uncertainty.
A lookup table can't reason about a life decision.
The hard part isn't fetching a fact — it's weighing your specific tradeoffs under uncertainty. That is reasoning, and it tends to need a model.
Forked Futures reasons across your messy context, the hidden assumptions inside a choice, and the next test worth running.

Models tradeoffs, not lookups
A rules engine matches rows in a table. Real decisions are tangled tradeoffs that may shift as your context changes — that comparison has to be reasoned through, not looked up.
Reasons over YOUR messy context
Your skills, values, fears, and constraints don't fit a fixed schema. A model can weigh that unstructured context together, where a hard-coded flow could only ignore it.
Surfaces hidden assumptions
Each path rests on beliefs you may not have noticed. The system tends to name those assumptions, tag where each claim came from, and show uncertainty instead of hiding it.
Turns uncertainty into a test
Where the evidence is thin, it could propose a small, reversible experiment — so you replace one assumption with real signal before you commit to anything.
Input → reasoning → output → action
Decision, options, skills, values, constraints, and fears — in your own words.
Curated evidence and base-rate signals are weighed, with every assumption made explicit.
Plausible branches with tradeoffs, uncertainty, and provenance shown side by side.
A small, reversible 7-day test that turns the biggest unknown into real signal.
It does not predict your future. It does not choose for you.
Forked Futures drafts evidence-grounded future scripts from your context and public knowledge so you can see the paths clearly — the decision, and what you weigh against what, stays entirely with you.
Everything here is an evidence-grounded future script — built from your context, public knowledge, and explicit assumptions. Plausible trajectories, not deterministic predictions: claims are tagged by where they came from, uncertainty is shown rather than hidden, and the choice stays with you.
